“Four centuries of hospitality, reimagined for today.”

The Red Lion has welcomed guests to Soham since 1620. Under Peter Leonard's stewardship since 2017, it has been lovingly restored into one of Cambridgeshire's finest dining destinations — where seasonal British cooking, a considered wine list, and genuine warmth come together.
